Historical information

The Fieseler Fi 167 was a biplane torpedo bomber and reconnaissance aircraft developed by the German company Fieseler between 1937 and 1940 for the planned aircraft carrier Graf Zeppelin. Only about 14 Fi 167s entered service with the Kriegsmarine, and the aircraft was distinguished by its excellent performance when operating from short decks. Although it did not enter widespread service due to the cancellation of the carrier project, it was used for reconnaissance tasks and testing by the Kriegsmarine of the Third Reich.
